Peter Frampton Set To Release New Album

Peter Frampton is set to release his new album, Thank You Mr. Churchill, on April 27. The guitar great describes the 11-song set, which he co-produced, as his most personal set to date.

"This album is very autobiographical," Frampton says. "It starts with my birth, which I thank Mr. Churchill for bringing my father back from the Second World War."

The album was recorded at his home studio in Cincinnati and was co-produced by Chris Kimsey, who served as the engineer on Frampton's first solo record, 1972's Wind of Change. The pair, who reportedly reunited on Facebook, had not worked together in over 30 years before this project.

Thank You Mr. Churchill also features cameos from Pearl Jam drummer Matt Cameron and the Funk Brothers, who play on the Motown tribute track, "Invisible Man."

Frampton’s previous release, 2006's Fingerprints, scored a Grammy Award for the veteran musician.
